Valladolid is located some 200 Km northwest of
Madrid. Both cities are connected by freeway (A-6 up to Tordesillas,
then take A-62 East to Valladolid). It takes approximately 2 h to
get from one city to another. If coming by car, follow this
map
after entering Valladolid.
Departing from Madrid, Valladolid can also
be easily reached by public transportation, either train
or
bus. Being not familiar with the latter,
we have to strongly recommend
the former.
In working days, no less than ten trains connect Madrid with
Valladolid, both ways. High-speed rail transport (AVE in Spanish)
was introduced in December 2007. With the AVE, moving in between the
two cities takes barely 55 min, which is certainly remarkable.
Once
in the Valladolid Train Station (called Valladolid-Campo Grande),
the best way to get to the Institute of Molecular Biology and
Genetics is by catching a taxicab. Trip is short and fairly
inexpensive. The Institute is only at a 20-min walk distance from
the train station. However, if not familiar with Valladolid, walking
is not recommended, as this is quite a rambling town.
Valladolid also has an
international airport,
situated some 10 km west, in the municipality of Villanubla.
Although Villanubla Airport is very small, flights to a variety of destinations are scheduled on an alternate day
basis.
